What was old is new again! Having been gutted to the studs, reinsulated and reconfigured to meet the needs of buyers today, this house retains charm and character throughout. Downstairs windows were added to enhance views east to the mountains and south down the valley. A tiled corner mudroom easily handles seasonal clothing and cubby items. There are beautiful original floors, restored banister and fir stair treads. The home is situated on 3.5 flat acres with a huge east-facing deck off the kitchen/dining area with spectacular Green Mountain views., There is perimeter drainage to the eastern field and the cellar window dry wells have been re-built. Basement is full and offers plenty of overflow space including laundry and workshop space. The slate roof is in excellent shape the metal roof over the porch is new and the new, period window shutters on the house are a composite material - very low maintenance! In addition to the oil boiler, there's a Vermont Casting propane stove in the living room and a Mitsubishi 18,000 BTU heat pump has been installed for supplemental winter heat and any necessary summer cooling. 4 minutes from the Cornwall School and 8 minutes to the Middlebury College campus, with a spruce grove on the west side and willows to the south.
